Atec 9410-1 User Manual

TYPE 9410-1 HIGH VOLTAGE ATTENUATOR

INSTRUCTIONS

1. The Type 9410-1 is a special purpose attenuator designed to attenuate very short duration,
high voltage and relatively low duty cycle pulses. Usually the most important attenuator
characteristic is power after attenuation rating in watts. For this attenuator, it is voltage rating.

2. Type 9410-1 Specifications:

Attenuation..............40 dB*

Voltage Rating ...........3000 V max.

Average Watts ...........2.0 max.

Frequency Range .........dc to 1 GHz

Input Impedance ..........50 ohms

Output Impedance ........50 ohms

Weight .................0.4 lb (0.18 kg)

Connectors ..............Input: Type N, male

.......................Output: type BNC, Female

VSWR .................Input: <20 MHz: <1.3; <70 MHz: <1.5;

....................... <100 MHz: <1.8

.......................Output: <150 MHz: <1.2; <200 MHz:<1.3;

....................... <500 MHz::<1.7; <1GHz: <3.0

* dc to 100 MHz, + 0.5 dB; 100 MHz to 1 GHz , + 3 dB;

3. The high voltage source should only be connected to the INPUT end of attenuator. The
OUTPUT connector is not protected for high voltage pulses and will only withstand 250 volts
and 0.25 watts average.

4. Each high voltage attenuator is serialized and calibrated. A graph of attenuation in dB vs
frequency (300 kHz to 1 GHz) taken in a 50 ohm system is supplied with each attenuator.
